Rotary Cutter Rotary cutter discharge

[DirtyDusty]

I have a 5' Rhino rotary cutter I pull behind a tc35 New Holland. The problem is when I use it to mow my pasture it piles all the grass up on one side as it cuts. I tried taking the guard off the back to see if it would discharge more evenly, but that didn't work either. I adjusted it so the rear end would be higher than the front and that didn't work either. Any ideas?

I've found with my mowers that it matters which side in running towards the side already mowed. My Bush Hog 286 likes the right side "in the clear". My Woods BB840 likes the left side. They scatter the clippings better that way.

Rough cut mowers aren't known for their ability to leave a "clean" field for the most part.

raise the side that the grass is building up on. You can do this with the 3pt arms. Raise it up 1-2 inches higher, also cutting higher can help also. This gives more room for the grass to discharge and not ball up and "rope" alongone side. Mike
